Good points Bryan - Wearing the light around your neck does seem to be a more "old school" thing nowadays. We always called them necklights not head lights. Does seem like us necklight guys are in the minority. Some places look like they have a bunch of coal miners out fishing.

oh man I hate that! and red lights are the way to go.
I do have to admit that I turn on my white light sometimes when rock hopping from one spot to the next, night vision isn't worth a broken leg to me.
although I do point the light down right at my feet so it doesn't shine on the water or at anybody.

I always loose my headlamps, necklights never seem to get lost.
